Manchester Derby: Manchester City star player Phil Foden grabbed the headlines in the Manchester Derby as his astonishing brace guided Pep Guardiola's Manchester City to a 3-1 win over Manchester United in their Premier League Matchday 27 Fixture. One of those two goals was a world-class effort from the Englishman and it is now said to be amongst the goals of the season in the Premier League 2023/24. The left-footed strike from Phil Foden from outside the box went past Andre Onana into the top bins, as Etihad Stadium came back to life after the goal.
The loss now gives Erik Ten Hag even more headache as his side has seen a string of dismal performances after being on a brilliant run since the turn of the calendar year. A loss to Fulham, a hard-fought scrappy 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest in FA Cup, and now this humiliating derby defeat puts the Dutchman in the hot seat as the Red Devils faithful have been seen getting impatient all over social media.
